Let me pass on my own thanks for the original posting and all the questions and comments. That's why this forum is so valuable. All the people are so knowledgeable and nice. We're probably very good looking too!

Are there any release notes or other documentation showing the differences between 3.0 and 3.1?

Yes, it does. But a show run command does not show a destination address for the Orion server in the configuration. Is that normal?

So, just to clarify....what is the oldest version that one can directly upgrade from?

bump fcaron please.

anyone? please?

OK, so let's see if I am understanding a little better. Each "site" must have a Cisco router or switch that is IP SLA compatible and configured. These sites are linked along defined call paths so that the VoIP QoS data can be colected via simulated calls. Right? Beyond that, one can add non-Cisco call managers so that VoIP…

Thanks Mark. I can certainly do that. But, I still don't understand what the Default Summary View is there for. For instance, I have a Home Page called "MyHome" and I also have another summary type view called "OtherHome". When the user clicks on the Home link in the menu bar, they are taken to the view listed for the Home…

and finally:

This is a very interesting question. What factors should be considered in determining the proper placement of the Orion NPM app server(s)? Is there an advantage to placing them at the distribution layer so that they are as close to centrally located between the core and access layers as possible? Is the decision most…

I am thinking of the SNMP service as an example to test the solution, but I would like to be able to apply the fix to any service or process. Specifically, I want to see if I can do this for a spooler and dependent services on a Citrix server. Now, as it happens, it seems that using Advanced Schedule Options for a…

Personally, I 'm a little confused by this response. Can NetFlow data be stored in a database that is physically separate from the Orion database, or must it still be installed in the same physical location? Are you actually talking about the ability to install the FGs on independent disks of a RAID array as long as the…

Pardon me, but just to verify, SolarWinds Orion still runs only in the 32 bit mode. Correct?

I was actually referring to the report.

Yes, but surely I don't need to be concerned with all of the logs that are in the diagnostics app. Aren't there a few that you can identify that would be useful in day-to-day performace and troubleshooting of Orion?

bshopp, I have always wondered what the difference is between the home page and the default summary view too. You did not exactly answer the question. Can you elaborate as little more? When, if ever, might the default summary view come into play?

I would like to know if the autoremediation capability ever made it into a current version of NCM. I have been unable to determine this by searching Thwack or examining NCM documentation. This is a critical issue with me. Thanks.

I typed that code in the box, and it does not work. My mouse cursor doesn't have clickable function on the link.

So, one cannot simply run the command script against the node(s) from the NCM console?

I see some data files in these folders with TLOG and PLOG extensions. What, if anything, can open and read these files? As far as data retention and deletion are concerned, does one simply need to delete these files at some arbitrary size limit? Or, is there a more formal procedure for maintaining these data files?

Next development... I attempted to upload a config without executing a command script. It did not take, but that may be another story. However, I noticed that the Upload Entire Config option is unavailable again in the Configs menu. But, if I open the config file, the Actions button has the Upload Entire Config option…

What do you mean by IPs that are cleaned up? What exactly is happening? Sorry to be so dense.

Elizabeth? Am I correct?

Thanks, Karlo. So, what is the answer to my question about how long it takes an alert to show up in System Manager?

I understand everything you said but: "Basic advanced will be able to take advantage of your dependencies setup without a problem". What do you mean by basic advanced"?

Denny, you said something here that conflicts with an understanding I have always had about SW licensing. You said that "An SL2000 means you can have 2000 of each". I have always understood that an SL2000 allowed you to monitor 2000 of any one of the three element types and up to 1999 of the other two for a total of as…

Thanks for the imput pacetti. Let em see if I understand the limitation on the Rediscovery interval. Are you saying that Rediscovery does not simply update information in the database for any OID that it is already polling? Is it really limited to re-indexed information on routers and switches? If that is the case, I see…

Thar she blows!!!! So I guess SW needs to update the ReadMe file that comes with the downloaded MIBs.zip file. It still lists the old file location for Orion.

Yep, that's just what my Common folder looks like. Sure seems weird though. OK you funny guys, where did you hide the MIBs file? :)
